I usually make this with firm tofu, but I tried making it with silken tofu and it was delicious!

The onion is not sautéed, so this is very easy to make! If you don't have nutmeg, add a little juice from a grated ginger. Recipe by Naosuke

Steps

1

Wrap the silken tofu in paper towels and put on a sieve. Weight it down and leave to drain for half a day. Finely chop the onion.
2

Combine the drained tofu, ground meat, egg, katakuriko, onion, nutmeg, salt and pepper, and mix together well until smooth.
3

Refrigerate the mixture for about an hour.
4

Form the mixture into patties. It's very soft so do this just before you'll cook them.
5

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the hamburgers. Brown well (so that the juices are trapped inside). Flip over and brown the other side.
6

When both sides are browned, flip them over again, cover with a lid and turn the heat down to low. Steam-cook the hamburgers (5 to 10 minutes). If the juices run clear when you press down on them, they are done.
7

Combine the sauce ingredients in a small pan and simmer.
8

Transfer to serving plates, pour the sauce over it, and serve.
